Major glitches on EPF Portal as nomination filing deadline ends on December 31, several users take to twitter to register complain

New Delhi: Retirement fund body EPFO has been constantly reminding its subscribers to file their e-nomination before the December 31 deadline. The name of the nominee mentioned in the latest PF nomination will be treated as final, whereas after fresh nomination by the account holder, the earlier nomination will be treated as cancelled, says the EPFO.

However, as the deadline to file e-nomination is nearing, several users have been complaining regarding error in e-nomination filing.

I have been trying to file my e-nomination for the past 2 days but i keep getting this error. How can someone complete e-nomination by 31st Dec if the website doesn't work ? pic.twitter.com/4m4hAPVU4r

There's an error in fetching eNomination details at all times I log in to the site to add mine whether morning, noon or night. I use the latest version of the Chrome browser.

Can @socialepfo advise accordingly please?
